Last month, the OPPO PAAT00 and PAAM00 smartphones
were certified by 3C authority in China. Only the R-series of smartphones from
OPPO carries support for fast charging. Since the PAAT00 and PAAM00 were found
to be enabled with fast charging, these phones were speculated as the upcoming
OPPO R13 Plus smartphone. However, the Chinese manufacturer had confirmed in
the previous week that its forthcoming R-series phone is called OPPO R15 and
the name of its advanced sibling is OPPO R15 Dream Mirror Edition.
The probable
reason why R13 moniker was canceled because the number is considered unlucky by
some people. Fresh information reveals that OPPO PAAT00, PAAM00, PACT00 and
PACM00 models that are believed to be the variants of the OPPO R15 and R15
Dream Mirror Edition have received TENAA certification at the end of the
previous month.
The specifications of the OPPO PAAT00 that have
surfaced on TENAA suggests that it could be the OPPO R15 Dream Mirror Edition
(DME). Since the PAAM00 is also packed with the same specifications, it could
be a network variant of R15 DME.
The dimensions of the OPPO PAAT00 are 155.3x 75 x
7.5mm and its weight is 175 grams. Black and Red are its two color variants. It
is fitted with a 6.28-inch AMOLED screen that supports of 2280 x 1080 pixels.
The handset receives power from an octa-core processor that clocks at 2.2 GHz.
The SoC is coupled with 6 GB of RAM. Its inbuilt storage is 128 GB and it has a
microSD card slot for more storage. It includes a 3,300mAh battery.
The handset is loaded with Android 8.1 Oreo. For
taking photos, its back panel features 16-megapixel + 12-megapixel dual cameras
while a 20-megapxiel camera is available for snapping selfies. The TENAA
listing of PACT00 indicates that it could be OPPO R15 handset and the PACM00
model could be its network variant.
The dimensions of PACT00 are 155.1 x 75.2 x 7.4mm
and it weighs 174 grams. A 6.28-inch AMOLED display that produces 2280 x 1080
pixels is available on it. It features a 2 GHz octa-core processor and 6 GB of

with Android 8.1 Oreo. It has the same selfie snapper of 20-megapixel like its
other sibling. The back panel of features a dual camera setup that has a
16-megapixel sensor and a 5-megapixel sensor.
The OPPO R15 and R15 Dream Mirror
Edition feature notch-enabled display like iPhone X. Both phones offer 19:9
aspect ratio. The display seems to offer around 90 percent screen-to-body
ratio. The back panel houses a dual camera setup and a fingerprint sensor.
Apart from the different configuration for the rear camera, both phones seem to
be powered by different chipsets. It is speculated that the OPPO R15 DME may
feature Snapdragon 700 series SoC while the OPPO R15 may be driven by the newly
unveiled Helio P60 chipset by MediaTek. Also, the rear view of the OPPO R15
Dream Mirror Edition suggests that its left and right edges are more curved
